Fans of Prime Minister Narendra Modi attacked actor-turned-politician Ramya on social media after the former Mandya MP indirectly criticised the PM’s indifference towards flood victims.

Ramya in fact earned the wrath of the Modi bhakts by announcing a reward for any photo that showed PM Modi with victims of floods in any part of the country.

Volunteers of the BJP’s social media cell responded to her post on the micro-blogging site with photos from her acting days.

This is hardly the first time Ramya has landed in the eye of a storm. She was also booked for sedition last year for saying Pakistan was not "hell" after visiting the country and praising the people's hospitality there.

On Tuesday, Ramya took to Twitter to write: "Can't find a single image of Prime Minister Modi with flood affected victims in Assam, Gujarat or Bihar. Too scared to get lynched you think? [sic]"

The jab at Modi was meant to rake up the mob lynchings by cow vigilantes across the country, something the prime minister has already condemned.

Ramya then offered money to anyone who could get her one such photo.

She wrote: "Ok guys, I'll give you 25,000 rupees if you find me a picture of Modi with flood affected victims in Assam, Gujarat or Bihar. No photoshop [sic]."

Barely hours after Ramya sent out her appeal along with the promise of a reward, she was trolled with photos from her past.

A user named Naveen Sagar posted a collage of images from a photoshoot of hers along with the comment: "Ramya with flood affected victim. She was reportedly paid a prize money of 6 lakh for this. No fotoshop. Real pic [sic]."

While Ramya did not respond to the tweet directly, she posted a video on Tuesdayevening purportedly showing a person who trolled her now issuing an apology.

Bengaluru, Jul 31: The Karnataka government on Wednesday put on hold a controversial proposal to drop certain chapters, including on Islam, Christianity, Tipu Sultan and his father Hyder Ali, from social science textbooks to reduce the 2020-21 syllabi for students in classes 1-10.

Citing the COVID-19 pandemic and the disruption caused to the academic calendar of the year, the government had earlier dropped the chapter on Tipu Sultan and Hyder Ali from the Class 7 social science textbook, saying chapters on Tipu Sultan have been retained in the Class 6 and 10 textbooks.

The move did not go down well with the opposition, which saw certain ulterior motives behind the decision.

Apparently under sharp criticism, the Department of Public Instruction issued a new notification on Wednesday "on the directions of the Karnataka Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar".

There is a delay in opening the schools during the academic year 2020-21 due to COVID-19 pandemic, said the latest order.

In this context, the order said, chapters were dropped to fit in 120 days of the academic year for classes 1 to 10 and the same was published in the department's website.

"However, on the directions of the Minister for Primary and Secondary Education, the decision to drop certain chapters has been put on hold. A review will be done following which the deleted chapters will be uploaded in the website," the order read.

Earlier in the day, Mr Kumar had issued a statement, saying that the decision to truncate the syllabus has not been finalised yet. He also made it clear that his department would not remove chapters unnecessarily.

Former chief minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah had attacked the government on the issue.

"The government, which has failed to control the spread of coronavirus, is using it as an opportunity to push its clandestine agenda of saffronising the textbooks," Siddaramaiah tweeted.
